[Verse 1]
The moon leans low like it’s had too much
Stars stumble
Fall
Can’t find their crutch
A river of amber runs deep in my veins
I sip on the night
It whispers your name

Old barstool
Got my name carved in the side
Same jukebox
Spinning back when you were mine
Half-price pour
But it costs me every time
'Cause every sip
Pulls you back into my mind

[Prechorus]
It’s sweet
It’s sharp
It cuts
It soothes
A bitter reminder of all I lose

[Chorus]
Tennessee whiskey dreams
They burn
They heal
Like a fire in the dark
Too strong to conceal
They haunt
They hold
They’re never what they seem
I’m lost in these Tennessee whiskey dreams
Tennessee whiskey dreams
Burnin' slow behind my eyes
Every drop tastes like you
Every swallow’s one more lie
Say I'm fine
Say I'm clean
But you're still runnin' through my veins
Tennessee whiskey dreams
Got me callin' out your name

[Verse 2]
A jukebox hums in a smoky haze
Voices fade out
But your ghost stays
The bottle’s my preacher
My sinner
My saint
It paints me in colors I swore I ain’t

Neon clock
Says it's way too late again
Your laugh still
Echoes from the far end of the room
I still smell your scent 
Risin' up from this old flannel
I chase you
In the bottom of this glass I can't handle

[Prechorus]
It’s sweet
It’s sharp
It cuts
It soothes
A bitter reminder of all I lose

[Bridge]
I chase the taste
But it slips my grip
Each drop’s a memory I can’t unsip
The glass is empty
But I still feel the weight
Of a love poured out too little
Too late

Bartender wipes the same old ring on the counter
Says
lady 
You oughta find a new way outta this town
But I'd rather chase that ghost a little longer
A little louder
'Cause folks like me
We just keep pourin' memories down

[Prechorus]
It’s sweet
It’s sharp
It cuts
It soothes
A bitter reminder of all I lose
